"You're doing it wrong"Chthonic confesses: "Only last year did I discover why the lids of things in tubes have a recessed pointy bit built into them." Tell us about the facepalm moment when you realised you were doing something wrong.

I am an imaging godbut I didn't start off too well.
For my 12th birthday I got a home darkroom kit: a wee tank to develop B&W film in, the chemicals, a contact printing frame and a special red light "for printing with" - that's what it said in the instructions.
I could not get any prints out of the kit.
After weeks of frustration I went to the library. I have never felt so stupid as when I read that a red light = a safe light, and it's pretty well useless for exposing B&W photographic paper (which is predominately blue-sensitive).
